It’s probably happened to you….you casually stroll by the pet store window and you are inexplicably drawn inside and exist with a fur ball of a pup or kitten.  You can’t put in words why but your life just seems incomplete without a quadruped to share your home.  And after a tough day at work, you get more comfort from stroking your pet than anything else you can think of.   The connection that we feel with our pets has garnered a great deal of press recently but is this phenomenon all in your heads or can it be explained in terms of cold hard facts?  My guest, Meg Olmert, has unraveled the mystery of human/animal bond.
